Soup bases were originally created to give chefs a faster and easier way to make a large pot of broth to use for cooking throughout the day. As soup bases have evolved over time, chefs now start with the flavor already concentrated, and then add the water needed for any specific menu application. Modern commercial kitchens use soup bases today to make a finished broth, gravy, or sauce.
